With a combination of on the job training from sales managers and group training sessions, your recruitment skills and sales techniques will be developed at a rapid rate.

Here’s what some of our previous academy graduates have said about the scheme:

“The support offered by Cobalt, and the friendly atmosphere of the office have helped me settle into working life quickly. I never really considered a career in recruitment until very recently, but my experiences over the course of the Cobalt Academy have meant I haven’t regretted that choice for a second. There aren’t many companies where you are handed such trust and responsibility so quickly, but Cobalt are not afraid to back you.”Dan Byrne – Spring Intake 2015

“Cobalt provides an opportunity for those new to the work, recruitment and the real estate environment to be part of a training program for 2 months. This allows for you to understand the nature of work and learn many valuable skills during this time. Having great colleagues, an amazing office location and work environment, makes it a great academy to be a part of”Teddy Murphy - Spring Intake 2015

“The Cobalt Academy has acted as a brilliant first step into the world of work. If you think you have the skills for a career in recruitment, Cobalt offers fantastic training and support no matter what your graduate background is.

It’s a really well-respected company and an enjoyable environment to be a part of.”Katie Robinson - Autumn Intake 2014
